Cryptographic Engineer Jobs in Iowa (NOW HIRING)

As a Full Stack Engineer Manager in Deloitte Cyber's Digital Trust & Privacy practice, you will operate at the intersection of client-facing advisory, product engineering, and hands-on technical delivery. You will help clients address complex challenges across digital trust, online protection, privacy, artificial intelligence governance, and data protection by translating business and regulatory requirements into scalable, production-grade technology solutions.

Full Stack Engineers work directly in client environments to architect, build, integrate, deploy, and improve solutions. Depending on the engagement, you may develop trust and safety capabilities, implement product compliance controls, operationalize privacy-by-design practices, build governance for generative or agentic AI, or deploy data protection and cryptographic solutions. These capabilities support Deloitte's broader Digital Trust & Privacy mission: helping organizations build confidence in their digital products, platforms, services, data practices, and customer interactions.

This role is designed for a technically strong consultant who can move from ambiguity to implementation, collaborate with product and engineering teams, and communicate effectively with business, security, privacy, legal, and compliance stakeholders.

Recruiting for this role ends on 12/31/2026.

Work you'll do

As a Manager, Strategy, Growth and Transformation on the Digital Trust & Privacy team, you will be responsible for:

• Translating client business objectives, risk requirements, and policy expectations into technical architectures, product requirements, engineering backlogs, and implementation plans

• 1+ years of experience designing or deploying generative artificial intelligence (AI) or large language model (LLM) solutions in a client or production environment, including experience delivering, governing, or operationalizing generative AI, LLM, or agentic AI solutions
• Experience in one or more of the following: digital trust and online protection, trust and safety, security, product compliance, privacy, AI governance, data protection, or cryptography; and experience leading technical workstreams, multidisciplinary teams, or engineering delivery teams; managing delivery scope, timelines, quality, risks, dependencies, and client communications; coaching or mentoring other professionals; and shaping pursuits, estimates, prototypes, technical demonstrations, or solution proposals
• Ability to travel 25-50%, on average, based on the work you do and the clients and industries/sectors you serve.
• Limited immigration sponsorship may be available.

Preferred:

• Experience with JavaScript or TypeScript and React or Next.js for application or demo development
• Experience developing or deploying technical controls for generative AI, LLM, or agentic AI applications
• Experience with AI use-case inventories, risk tiering, human oversight, tool access controls, prompt-injection mitigations, logging, monitoring, or controls-as-code
• Experience in regulated industries such as financial services, healthcare, or public sector environments, including work aligned to Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), or General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
• Experience with Kubernetes, GitOps, Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, Neo4j, PyTorch, or TensorFlow
• Experience owning product roadmaps, technical backlogs, or reusable engineering assets, and experience working with senior client stakeholders to facilitate architecture or risk decisions
